The Myths of Penis Enlargement

Throughout
the ages mankind has always been ready to make up for any lack of knowledge
with a combination of intuition, deduction, observation and outright invention
that is usually called myth. Myths are stories that are based to a certain
degree on what men understood from the facts before them. Their purpose is to
fill a gap either in knowledge or in morals.

A good example of a widespread myth that has no real basis and is meant to
enforce a certain type of behavior is the old saying that masturbation makes
men go blind. In fact a Swiss physician Samuel-Auguste Tissot said in 1760 that
his studies proved that masturbation causes a perceptible reduction of
strength, of memory and even of reason, blurred vision, all the nervous
disorders, weakening of the sex organs disturbance of the appetite, headaches
and a great number of other disorders. It goes without saying that most men
living today know better than to believe that.

But grown men themselves are not spared the fear that myths are supposed to put
into their souls. Another widespread myth claims that lack of sex over a longer
period of time would certainly cause the penis or testicles to shrink. However,
neither penis nor testicles size is in no way linked to the frequency of sex
sessions or anything else of this kind.

Another all-time favorite is the series of myths linking penis size to that of
another part of the body, usually the hands or feet. Again, there is no
scientific evidence that penis size is related to that of any part of the body.
Actually, studies conducted by experts found a weak correlation at most between
the size of the penis and the size of a man’s feet. This means that the rule is
good for, probably, one man in a hundred.

Less known myths also have their fans. Some men think that drinking water can
help enlarge the penis, which is not true. While other muscles in the body can
grow in size with the help of extra oxygen and water delivered by supplements
or pills, this is not the case with the penis. The sponge-like tissues called
Corpora Cavernosa are not designed to hold blood or any other liquid
permanently, but only as long as sexual stimulation occurs.

While penis enlargement exercises share some features with the regular body
building techniques, adding water to gain size is not among them. Penis
exercises work by forcing the cells that make up the penis tissues to grown in
number, using the body’s own mechanism of adapting to external pressure. The
pace of the enlargement process can be increased with the help of penis
enlargement pills that boost the flow of blood to the genital area and make
sure production of testosterone by the body is at the right level.

The bottom line is, of course, that nobody should put any stock in myths. Most
of them distort facts to achieve a certain end and should not be trusted. If
you are not certain about the effect that some thing or other has on your penis
size or sex life, then it’s better to ask a professional, preferably a doctor.
This way you’ll find that many myths regarding the penis are just that: myths.
